A long-time Wellington, Ohio friend shared this recipe with me and has become an all-time favorite. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and salsa. You can brown the chicken in a skillet first if you prefer. I have found it makes little difference.

CHICKEN CHILI



Chicken Chili image

Get yourself through the week with Ina Garten's Chicken Chili recipe from Barefoot Contessa on Food Network; it's low in calories but high in flavor.

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 cups chopped yellow onions (3 onions)
1/8 cup good olive oil, plus extra for chicken
1/8 cup minced garlic (2 cloves)
2 red bell peppers, cored, seeded, and large-diced
2 yellow bell peppers, cored, seeded, and large-diced
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more for chicken
2 (28-ounce) cans whole peeled plum tomatoes in puree, undrained
1/4 cup minced fresh basil leaves
4 split chicken breasts, bone in, skin on
Freshly ground black pepper
Chopped onions, corn chips, grated cheddar, sour cream

Steps:

  • Cook the onions in the oil over medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes, until translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Add the bell peppers, chili powder, cumin, red pepper flakes, cayenne, and salt. Cook for 1 minute. Crush the tomatoes by hand or in batches in a food processor fitted with a steel blade (pulse 6 to 8 times). Add to the pot with the basil. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil and place them on a baking sheet. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Roast the chicken for 35 to 40 minutes, until just cooked. Let cool slightly. Separate the meat from the bones and skin and cut it into 3/4-inch chunks. Add to the chili and simmer, uncovered, for another 20 minutes. Serve with the toppings, or refrigerate and reheat gently before serving.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use a large skillet or wok: This will give you plenty of room to stir-fry the chicken and vegetables without overcrowding them.
  • Heat your skillet or wok over high heat: This will help to sear the chicken and vegetables and prevent them from sticking.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet or wok: Cook the chicken and vegetables in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
  • Stir-fry the chicken and vegetables until they are tender and cooked through: This will usually take about 5-7 minutes.
  • Add the sauce and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes: This will help to thicken the sauce and coat the chicken and vegetables.
  • Serve immediately over rice or noodles: This dish is best served hot.

Conclusion:

Chili Chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is packed with flavor and can be customized to your liking. You can add more or less heat, depending on your preference. You can also add other vegetables, such as broccoli, carrots, or bell peppers. Chili Chicken is a great way to use up leftover chicken, and it is also a healthy and affordable meal.
